Road to liberated Ukrainian village lined with burnt-out tanks

The road into the newly liberated Ukrainian village of Storozheve was on Wednesday (June 14) lined with burnt-out armored vehicles. The scenes bear witness to heavy fighting as Ukrainian troops recaptured Storozheve and several other villages in the past few days in a counteroffensive in southern and eastern Ukraine. Inside the village, the small one-story houses that line the road have been badly damaged by shelling, their roofs destroyed or with gaping holes. An abandoned stroller lies overturned at the side of the road. Storozheve is one of a cluster of settlements near the Mokry Yali River that Ukraine says its troops have captured since their counteroffensive began. Reuters first reached the nearby village of Neskuchne on Tuesday (June 13), providing the first independent confirmation of the Ukrainian advances since it began the counter-offensive.
